The Forest
Plates is a creative food company that pushes the boundaries of what’s possible with plants, champions high craft low waste, and turns the humble into the heroic. Through our London restaurant, Bordeaux creative farm and food design studio, Plates explores creative interpretation through art & design, photography & film and of course gastronomy. Plates’ food ethos combines old-world training with new-world techniques to present a unique form of elevated, plant-based craft that is as fulfilling as it is flavourful. Inspired by chef Kirk Haworth’s personal health journey, Plates is focussed on sustainability for people and planet, optimum nourishment and showcasing the wonders of crafting with plants, to inspire others and create a more balanced food landscape.
Impact
The trees we plant have big ambitions: to bring benefits not only to the environment, but also to the people who live in it. That's why we work with NGOs and local communities to select the right tree for the right place and the right purpose. That’s why we think about the medium and long term, because we’re not content with simply planting trees: we want to see them grow.
